[Answer]
このへやは(1 すずしい)です。
This room is cool.
すずしい is the only word that appropriately describes the condition of a room.
Explanation of Other Choices:
みじかい means “short.”
It is used to describe things like time or length, not a room.
かるい means “light” in terms of weight.
ぬるい means “lukewarm”, “not hot enough” or “not cold enough.”
It is usually used to describe the temperature of liquids, like tea, bathwater, or juice.
e.g.
お茶(ちゃ)がぬるい。
The tea is lukewarm.
ジュースがぬるい。
The juice is not cold enough.
I hope this explanation helps! 😊
